I'm not an expert or anything like that and minimalism can be seen from many angles in this life. But I think minimalism is not about being stingy at all. On the contrary, it's more about having what you really need, and making space by taking away what you don't need at all. What you need can be anything from something that costs pennies to something that can be very expensive, as long as you can afford it. Minimalism is not about money.
You made me laugh when you said: So I had to move out and get a new place.
Sorry. 😁
Have a nice day.
You are right, your perspective on Minimalism is actually legit and I think most people should understand it. Thanks for stopping by😊
